Parents (2001)

Mackenzie Rosman: Ruthie Camden

Quotes 

• Ruthie Camden : What I need from you is a plan.

  Mary Camden : A plan?

  Ruthie Camden : Yeah, a plan. I want to do something Mom and Dad say I can't. You practically made a career of doing stuff Mom and Dad told you not to do!

  Mary Camden : And look where that got me.

  Ruthie Camden : They're not gonna send me away to Buffalo for buying make-up!

• Mary Camden : [to Ruthie when she buys make-up behind her parents' back]  Sooner or later, Mom and Dad are going to find out. They always do, and when they do you're gonna be in trouble. Big trouble.

  Ruthie Camden : I liked you better when you were messing up your life.

• Ruthie Camden : [to Eric]  Can I have that really big, really cool make-up kit that's on sale at the department store?

  Rev. Eric Camden : The one you asked about yesterday?

  [Ruthie nods her head] 

  Rev. Eric Camden : No. You're too young to wear make-up.

  Ruthie Camden : But my friend Rachel gets to wear make-up!

  Rev. Eric Camden : You have a 10-year-old friend who wears make-up?

  Ruthie Camden : Just blush and lipstick. Her parents don't think she's too young. Her mom bought her that make-up kit.

  Rev. Eric Camden : Sorry. No make-up.

  Ruthie Camden : Thanks for nothing!

  [storms off] 

  Rev. Eric Camden : [sighs]  Parenting really is its own reward.
